The 2020 NFL Draft is just days away. Here’s a look at who the Washington Redskins could target in each round of the event.

The Washington Redskins are armed with seven picks in the 2020 NFL Draft. And there are a lot of different ways that they could utilize them.

Outside of their first-round pick, it’s hard to gauge exactly what the team will do in the draft. Why is that? After the No. 2 overall pick, they don’t pick again until No. 66 in the third round. That means two full rounds worth of players will come off the board, and it’s tough to know what all of the teams in front of Washington are planning to do.

There are still plenty of options for each round. And we’re going to look at as many of them as we can with the first round of the draft just two days away.

We’re going to skip over the first-round prospects because it has become abundantly clear that the Redskins have their sights set on one player. That’s Chase Young. The Ohio State edge rusher is the most talented defender in this class and while he may not fill a big need for the team, they simply need talent. And Young provides that.

But enough with the No. 2 pick. Here’s a look at some players that the Redskins could target with their picks from Rounds 3 to 7 of the 2020 NFL Draft.

Note: Round 6 is excluded because the Redskins don’t currently have a sixth-round pick.
